Chapter 213 The three armies are all drunk, and the gates are opened

Luzhou is also known as the wine city, and there are good wineries everywhere, but now they are basically stopped.

Winemaking requires food, and grain is in Sichuan, which is a rare thing.

Hou Xuanyan had an army of 30,000. When he arrived in Luzhou, Ma Yingxian was still in a row with Yang Zhan in Jiading Prefecture, Sichuan next door. This Jiading is not Hou Xuanyan's hometown, but a mansion in Sichuan, and is now occupied by Hou Yang Zhan, Jinjiang.

Yang Zhan is an exception among the Sichuan warlords. Not only did he not exploit the people like other warlords, he vigorously urged the farming and sericulture to learn from. When the whole of Sichuan was in a food shortage, the people's lives were still healthy.

This also aroused the covetousness of the warlords next to him. The horses in Luzhou took the exam and led their troops to loot the people of the counties and counties around Jiading Prefecture every now and then. Every time Yang Zhan led his troops, he would run away without a trace. Unfortunately, the horses fell off, and this time they were caught by the carefully prepared Yang Zhan.

When Hou Xuanyan was on the road, the scouts sent to report the situation ahead. Hou Xuanyan immediately decided to speed up the march and take the opportunity to take down Luzhou Prefecture.

In Luzhou Prefecture, Hou Xuanyan ordered all Ma Yingxuan's family to behead him, and then all his confidants were executed.

That's not all. Hou Xuanyan, who controlled Luzhou Prefecture, sent heavy troops to ambush both sides of the mountain road. Ma Yingying, who was waiting for the news, came back to rescue Luzhou.

Ma Yingying, who was fighting in front of him, was a little upset when he was caught by Yang Zhan. Suddenly, a personal soldier who escaped came and told him that Luzhou was captured. Ma Yingying was so scared that he was speechless.

"Who beat us in Luzhou? Is it the dog thief Wang Xiang from Zunyi?"

The soldier was just escaping his life, and he didn't dare to ask who was fighting Luzhou. After hearing this, he was afraid that he would not be able to say anything and be beaten by the angry Ma Ying exam. He lied: "It's Wang Xiang."

After saying that, I thought to myself that there is only Wang Xiang who can hit Luzhou nearby, so I shouldn't be wrong.

Ma Yingxian was furious: "I have known this turtle son that he is not authentic. When I came, I even formed an alliance with him and promised him to steal Jiading and get a share of him. Since this kid is not trustworthy, we will go back and kill him first. He has only 40,000 people in total. I don't believe that his hometown will not want it, and the whole army will come to attack me."

The soldier nodded in a common hatred of the enemy and said, "That's right, the general will definitely destroy Wang Xiang when he takes us back."

Ma Yingying made up his mind and left behind the two thousand men in the palace. He hurriedly retreated east with his main force.

Seeing that he was withdrawing strangely, Yang Zhan touched his chin and said: This kid is running so fast, he must be a trick, and he wants me to be fooled, haha...

"Ming Jin withdrew his troops and withdrew his troops back to Jiading."

On the ancient road outside Luzhou, there are lush green mountains on both sides, with nearly 20,000 people lying here.

Hou Xuanyan always felt itchy behind his back. In fact, at this time, the chilly spring was cold, and some snakes and insects in the mountains had not yet fully awakened. However, under the psychological effect, he was worried.

Finally, the sound of horse hooves in the distance came, and Ma Yingxian led his army back.

When he reached the valley, Hou Xuanyan waved his hand gently, Hu Bawan shouted loudly, and thousands of arrows were fired from both sides. Arrows and muskets were shot at the same time, and screams came one after another, and they could not stop for a long time.

Ma Yingxian was shot in an arrow on the shoulder and wailed and directed his men to dismount and resist.

After a volley, Hunan soldiers rushed out of the jungle, and the deep jungle phobia patient Hou Xuanyan took the lead and led the crowd to kill the enemy.

The ambush in the mountains and forests was like a catastrophe to the horses who were rushing to take the test. Especially the two thousand local soldiers in western Hunan were like fish in water on such a battlefield. The ruthless goat sickle was harvesting the enemy's heads.

After sporadic resistance, those who threw away their weapons and surrendered, almost all those who resisted were killed. An ambush came quickly and ended quickly.

Hu Bawan once again forgot his mission. When he came back, he held Ma Yingying's head in his hand and laughed foolishly.

This time, the luck was so good that Hou Xuanyan couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "I'll give you a military officer another day. Stay with me by my side, and I'll be wronged."

Hu Bawan threw Ma Ying's head and said with a smile: "I wish to be by the commander-in-chief and be a guard for the rest of my life."

"What's the use of asking a personal soldier like you? His throat is usually louder than anyone else. When he sees it, he has to work with me. He can't even see the figure of his mother when he fights."

Hu Bawan didn't think it was so much, and continued to laugh: "Master General, we are lucky this time. I'd better if the following people were like this, and I'll pick up another bargain."

Hou Xuanyan's gloomy mood has improved for several days. After so many battles, he is indeed lucky today.

"Brothers, go back to Luzhou to rest. Today we will drink Luzhou wine."

The crowds on the battlefield were packing up, and cheers erupted, speeding up the pace of the march. Drinking was strictly prohibited in marching and fighting. These people were fighting men, and there were few who didn't like wine. Even the inferior rice wine, they all drank it with relish.

After returning to Luzhou, Hou Xuanyan inspected for a week and found that this place was not much better than Zunyi. The fields were covered with weeds, and people's livelihood was withered, and nine out of ten rooms were empty. Although Hou Xuanyan was heartbroken, he knew that the same was true in other places. He heard that Yang Zhan from Jiading did a good job, Hou Xuanyan wrote a letter and sent a quick horse to Jiading Mansion. Although Yang Zhan looked good, he was used to being a local emperor, who knew what he was thinking. In case, Hou Xuanyan was still ready to send troops to Jiading. This land in Shu will never allow the existence of the local emperor, whether you love the people or harm the people.

Sichuan has no absolute authority, and sooner or later they will fight for each other.

After the completion, Hou Xuanyan sent someone to Guizhou to transfer food into Sichuan to save the surviving people in this area first.

After returning to Luzhou, Hou Xuan performed money and bought all the inventory of large and small wine shops in Luzhou. The shopkeepers of each workshop refused first and did not dare to collect the money. Later, he saw that this army was different from any of the past. They really gave the money, so the shopkeepers opened the wine cellar and sold all the hidden wines.

Although Ma Yingxian's warlords had been plundered several times, they still hid so many fine wines, which shows that these shopkeepers have experienced quite a few things. In this place of disasters and difficulties, such wine storage places and means passed down from generation to generation, which is both sad and sad.

Late at night, cool breeze, white moon, and drunkenness!

Thirty thousand people drank all night, Luzhou city gates were wide open, and all military generals at all levels were not on guard. The commander had already passed the orders, and he slept in Luzhou tonight. Let's see who dares to invade?

After a few days of anger, this fine wine hit his throat. Hou Xuanyan's eyes were blurred, and he stood up and sang: "I'm drunk for 30,000 yuan, and I'll fight in all directions. Those who are young in Sichuan will not surrender..."

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"
